afr Dit handel oor plaas nr 186, dist. Damaraland, en is ook ’n 'teoretiese sen- trale' van die poskantoor (Amptelike gids 1972). Die reduplikatiewe vorm is vir intensivering. 'Vogelkrantz' is nie die vertaling van die klein puts nie, en was in dr Hartmann se tyd blykbaar ’n erkende alternatiewe naam. Krenz FK 1976 Boer skryf as Aantekening hierby 'Sorris-Sorris het aan die Krenz- familie behoort. Dit beteken ‘Son-baie-son’; Vogelkrantz le oorkant die rivier Ugab'
